What are great Music and Art Collections?

I`m working on a C64 collection for Xbox at the moment.
I`d like to also include some Music and graphics collections, but there are so many!

Any ideas about collections that should absolutely be included?


(With 'collections' i mean self starting Menus or Slide-shows etc. not Disks with separate Sids and Pictures!)

well in all honesty, i really cant see you being able to put such a thing together without compiling it yourself.

there are several "gallery" style demos and disks knocking around, but in reality, none of the ones you can download will truly be representative of "the best the c64 can offer".

art and music tastes are just far too subjective and diverse on the c64 to provide you with what you seek. What would make it onto my top 10 art disk for example may not make it onto someone elses.

I see what You mean. Ofcourse any selection will always be subjective, no matter if I choose one or someone else does.
But I think that a lot of people over here have greater knowledge about what's 'out there' than I have..

What I`m hoping for is to get an idea of some kind of 'Average-chart', like the 'Top-Demos' section here.

So the more 'subjective' opinions the better. Sure there are some collections most people agree on?

As for 'best representation' ; you've got a point there. So if anyone feels strongly about certain SIDS or Art, mention it too ;)


Thanks in Advance for any opinions

Ha! thanks for that simple option! :P Somehow I`ve overlooked it on the site; dumb stupid me.

I`m sure that will get me started at least ;) thanks

This is a nice music colly. (yes music by me!).

But you have to choose the tunes yourself in the menu part.

Good luck with your project!

yes you could do that. but does that really give the the "best of the best" of c64 art?

not really, when my set of unused PD shooter graphics can be listed as high 13th and there's not a Bob Stevenson, Paul Docherty, Steve Thompson link there at all in the top 10.

you would be much better advised to look at the collections on here by artist not by collections themselves. only then will you really see what's on offer.

ohh troll hat firmly in place now is it groepaz?
is it really the job of a mod on here to incite people to downvote i wonder? you just don't seem to be able to help yourself.

i do hope the other mods and admins are now taking notice of your change of status on this thread.

@Carrion how you think that list is representative of the best in c64 art with no Steve Thompson in it is quite beyond me tbh.

or wayne schmidt, Bob Stevenson, Paul Docherty, Jim Sachs or indeed anyone else who pushed pixels before 1994. all these square up perfectly well against the best on that list.

hardly representative when all it shows is how little anyone looks and votes on anything prior to 2000.

no it is not, no idea why you have such strange ideas. if you look at the list, its obvious that its based on way too few votes for way too few productions and people. and there is only one way to correct that: vote more.
